@Tony_Huynh @DodoMVS Serious question. What's the problem with having voice chat? Other games like fort and overwatch have it. If you don't want it on you can just turn it off.

@aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch Can y’all just put overwatch 1 back online? Some of us didn’t need this new game and yall are ruining our quality bonding time with distant friends for an issue y’all should’ve been prepared for years ago

It's only the second day of #Overwatch2 and I already think you need to start thinking about bringing in an Overwatch Classic or bring back Overwatch 1. People being locked out because they can't afford a post pay phone, server issues, monetization, bugs, just bring it back.

Imagine being able to play overwatch two spending an hour to try and fix your account just to find out you still can’t play because apparently your phone number is incorrect and you need that to play the game which is stupid thanks blizzard clearly game of the year.👌🏻

@scottjohnson @lackingsaint My son is having no problem playing Valorant, but he can’t play Overwatch because his Japanese phone number isn’t recognized as valid. Very frustrating.

@lackingsaint I dropped Overwatch after the whole tournament issue. But this just makes me happier i did. I have never heard of such bullshit. Who thought BARRING so many ppl from play would be a good idea?? It’s cruel and all around stupid as ****.

@Qwik just take overwatch offline till you fix the servers and account merging. I’m not even gonna try to play till at least the account merging is fixed. None of my stuff is there. Some transparency would be nice. Like I said just take the game offline and fix everything

I'm not saying that overwatch 2 isn't being DDos'd. But I am saying that according to Activision OW had over 800k daily players in September. Now look at a more niche free game like MultiVersus which had a top player count of 150k at launch that's now dropped to around 3k.

Didn’t Blizzard have these same issues with the launch of Diablo 3 back in 2012??? How the hell has nothing changed a decade later for the launch of Overwatch 2! It’s embarrassing lmaooo

@OfficialXboxU Activision deal will not make Microsoft money . The only way it makes Microsoft money is if world of Warcraft on console . If it doesn’t come on console, there’s no Money to be made . Remember Diablo , Spyro , crash , and overwatch have come out for 3 systems

@HeliosGalaxy While yes, i agree, overwatch players are toxic af it still doesn’t excuse lack of preparation. They took down the OW1 servers and killed the game off officially, they should’ve known there would be high traffic coming into Overwatch 2. They can’t do much against the DDoS attacks

@FrostyBanjo @RinKarigani the main issue at the moment is that if your phone is pre paid Overwatch simply won't let you play for some reason. So for a lot of people their just unable to because of this reason, which ******* sucks.

Am I the only person who thinks that people who bought Overwatch 1 should get at least the first battlepass for free? Especially with the amount of problems for consoles too. Like I dont even jave any of my items rn because of the damn Merge Bug... nor do I have any characters 🙄

@seanistakenn That is exactly what they should have done. That way there is no 1 or 2, just Overwatch. It would have brought more people back and we wouldn't have these insane connection problems. The game is a reskin with 5 players per fight (which we hate) instead of 6. Insanity.
